Bathing fun: A wet surprise
After a long restful night for all, the colourful life of the Straw Hat Pirates woke up on the deck of the Thousand Sunny. Solely the Lying Baron of our friends had not slept well clearly, because he constantly felt persecuted in his dreams because of some night hike, so he rolled from side to side in his bunk. The consequences were eye circles and a very fancy hairstyle for its owner.
In the girls room there it was even more cheerful. The orange-haired was at times on the legs and supported her friend the cook with good spirits vigorously for breakfast preparation.
Robin was meanwhile also got up and stood right in front of her closet as the door opened again:
"Good morning dearest archaeologist! I just embedded hot water for you, have a relaxing dip at the beginning of the day and worries away to nothing."
"What, why, do I look so stressed?"
"I was still awake yesterday evening and saw you working sitting in bed. I know you have something written and you went sleeping until very late. So I thought of making you a little delight."
"You're right, yesterday was late. ... I think I really need a little time out from the hustle and bustle. Sigh."
Thus, the black-haired arose into the bathroom.
'Nami meant I should wear what she brought for me from the city, maybe it is the surprise she said yesterday. Let's see what it is' thought Robin.
Curious and slowly she opened the bag which stood at the edge and a white summer dress came out with lilac ribbons on the side, not quite the style that she usually carried but yet she rejoiced. The archaeologists immediately hung the pretty dress on one of the chairs and took off of her clothes, climbed into the full tub and also sink in deep satisfaction.
The water was quite hot, so it was smoking and the windows fogged up. Totally enveloped by the fog, Robin enjoyed her comforting bath. In here, turn off doing really well, well for her soul and her mind. She closed her eyes and slowly ran her hands over the neck, her shoulders and her arms. She stopped realized her wound on the forearm. She glanced to the place carefully and stroked it gently, where a certain green-haired man touched her. The archaeologist closed her blue eyes again and imagined how he delicately stroked his hand over it.
Suddenly she was pulled underwater by the leg, at the same time also re-released, so she appeared coughing.
"What ... gasp ... what was ... coughing ... that?" she said to herself. She could see a shadow through the smoke which was unfortunately very close to her and therefore in the bathtub. The fog lifted quickly and the first thing she saw caused a little shock out in her.
'Green hair! No, oh please let it be someone else, please not him, not here, not now!'
Robin was about to rise even as she realized it. 'But now I cannot get out, he would see me and I would see him!'
"Ro-bin? "...
"Ye-es, Kenshi-san?" she breathed and tried with only as much as possible to cover her shame with foam. Her opponent was pretty red and heated only by the thought of seeing her totally stripped; tried hard to stare to the side. He had also tried to protect his lower half of using the foam.
"I-I did not know that you're here, I thought your feet would be the sponge."
"I should have locked and thus it is my fault, too." The archaeologist tried to remain calm but could not prevent to take her eyes from the body of the sword-bearer, his muscles were too attracted and his wet skin by the sweat and the bath water simultaneously. The tension could see on him clearly, he had to swallow.
"I'm only here because our bathroom is blocked by Usopp. Today his hair was out of order. I did not want to peep or something."
"All right, Kenshi-san. ... Unfortunately I have no idea how we made this very embarrassing situation but we have to come out. "... A long silence was in the room.
"We have a problem. The foam dissolves slowly but surely." ... Another silence associated with emerging redness.
"How about if you turn around, I climb out and get quickly dressed, Kenshi-san?"
He nodded. "Hurry up, or one of ..." this time he had to dive under the water and to wait. Zoro heard steps towards the bathroom and with a knock the door opened and Nami looked inside:
"Hey Robin, are you finished? We are waiting for you with the breakfast. Our Luffy is not unstoppable for long. ... Oh yes, do you like it?"
The black-haired woman stepped out of the tub and wrapped her in one of the towels "Yes, I'll be right there and thank you for the dress, I would carry it on straight away." A smile disappeared and her friend closed the door behind her.
"Bah! … Cough ... Oh man; I thought the witch would never go!" Zoro remained seated, wiped a hand across his face and then looked into the eyes of the archaeologist.
With folded arms, dripping and wrapped in the towel she said with a smirk on her mouth to the sword bearer: "Did not I say to you to turn around, Kenshi-san?" with that she pointed a finger at him and waited until he got according to her request.
Robin got dressed so fast without to make a little sound, always careful to have the green-haired man in the corner of her eye; maybe he get the stupid idea and turns to her.
"I'm ready Kenshi-san. You can turn around yourself back." Zoro should have much prefer to wait for what he now got to face him made him speechless and let the heat along with the redness raised to the head once again. His opponent pulled the last wrinkles of her dress rightly, turned in front of the mirror and stopped when she saw the face of Zoro in it.
As with the times before she was taken captive by his green eyes. She could no longer stir, as she tied up at the mirror and looked absolutely frozen. The beams blinding her a little so she blinked. His look was slowly gentle but the smile was powerful.
"It suits you truly well," Zoro just said. Robin, totally shocked by his sentence, ran towards the door, searched the latch, flung open the door and disappeared into the bright sunshine.
All that remained was a baffled man.
